In the world of Moe King, I became the ruler of ice.

The blue light in Gransta's hand faded, and the Ice Demon Longsword disappeared. He had confirmed that the intruder had no malicious intent.

just

The room was filled with the aroma of wine, and all the stored wine was swept away, even the semi-finished wine was not spared.

Bottles were scattered all over the ground, some only half-empty and carelessly tossed aside. It was such a waste of good stuff, and I couldn't help but feel a pang of regret.

Keep in mind that this is an expensive wine bought from the Elf Lady of the Dwarf Kingdom. Gransta usually only has a few drinks when he's in a good mood, and Rimuru often asks him for a free drink.

But all of that is gone, and a nameless fire rises in my heart.

His ears twitched slightly, and sure enough, he heard some noise coming from somewhere.

"Hiccup~ Hiccup~"

Then came a low chuckle: "Hiccup~ Hehe, that feels good." The soft sound came from a pile of miscellaneous empty barrels.

Granstas walked expressionlessly to the empty wine pile, from which the voice originated.

He moved the clutter aside and, after finally seeing it clearly, the corner of his mouth twitched involuntarily.

A very petite elf, with blonde hair and a black dress, chuckled foolishly, her mind hazy with drunkenness, mumbling incoherently. She was still clutching a wine bottle larger than herself, looking as if she hadn't had enough.

A hint of surprise flashed in Granstad's eyes, then he rubbed his forehead in exasperation.

Isn't that little Ramiris? How did she find her way here?

A large hand gripped the wine thief like an iron clamp, lifting his entire body up effortlessly.

In an instant, a strong, pungent smell of alcohol rushed into my nose like a raging torrent.

"Waaah~ What's going on? How did I fly up~" The guy who was lifted up barely opened his eyes, which were squinting, and looked ahead in a daze, only to find a face with no expression in front of him, frowning and staring at him.

Her previously pleasant mood instantly turned terrible. She angrily shouted, "Ugh, you bad person, you big bad guy! Let me go!"

Despite her petite stature, she struggled desperately, trying to break free of her restraints.

However, the hand gripping her was as firm as ice crystals, and no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't let go. At the same time, the wine bottle she was holding seemed to be an extension of herself, refusing to loosen its grip no matter what.

Upon hearing this, Gulansta couldn't help but laugh.

Ha! This little thief actually dared to call him a bad guy? The little brat who stole his wine still has the nerve to call him a bad guy. Looks like she's pretty drunk by now; she needs to be sobered up.

He naturally wouldn't forgive easily. With a wave of his arm, a ball of blue light began to rapidly gather and condense in his palm, and the surrounding temperature instantly plummeted to freezing point.

"You dared to steal and drink all my wine? You deserve some punishment!"

As Gransta muttered to himself, he picked up the object in his hand and threw it straight at the blue orb that was forming.

Upon contact, the bottle containing the liquor instantly froze into an incredibly hard block of ice, while the glass bottle was enveloped in a thick layer of icy mist.

"Huh? Why can't I drink alcohol all of a sudden?" The unlucky guy who was thrown into the blue ball of light was still shaking the now-cold bottle in his hand.

However, after she shook it a few times with a little force, the entire bottle immediately shattered and scattered all over the ground. This sudden change made her face freeze in shock.

Gransta raised an eyebrow in surprise, watching as the little elf showed no reaction whatsoever in minus fifty degrees Celsius, and stared blankly into his eyes.

Uh. Gransta, somewhat skeptical, increased his magic power, making the space extremely dry. All the moisture in the air turned into ice crystals and fluttered down to the ground.

Nearly 100 degrees below zero!

Gulansta even used some of the power of the extreme cold domain.

But this elf didn't seem to feel anything at all, and even yawned.

Gransta was already convinced, and there was still no reaction? It seemed like he was about to resort to violence, just as he was about to draw his Ice Ghost Longsword.

The Dominator's notification sound appeared in his mind.

"Lord Gransta, this elf has a layer of immunity magic, which makes him immune to most elemental effects."

Gulansta frowned.

"Immune to magic? Does that mean I'm helpless against this little thing?"

The ruler remained silent for a moment.

"Lord Gransta, if we use physical attacks, we can damage this spirit."

However, this immunity magic will send a signal, connecting to another dimension and creating a portal.

Gulansta was slightly surprised.

"You mean if I were to harm this little sprite, what would happen?"

"Um."

The ruler gave an affirmative response.

Gransta silently sheathed his Ice Demon Longsword, his expression calm.

"Ahem... I guess I'll pass on physical methods then."

He had already guessed that this immunity magic was probably created by the Primal Red to protect Lamiras. If that guy were actually harmed, a Primal Demon would definitely pop out of the portal.

Gulansta was in a bind.

If you mess with this little guy, you'll probably attract a whole bunch of demons.

I glanced at Ramiris, who was still floating in the blue orb and puffing up in a huff.

The voice of the ruler then rang out.

"Actually, I can temporarily block this immunity magic..."

There was even a hint of eagerness in his voice.

"what?"

Gulansta hadn't expected that the Overlord was actually encouraging him.

"Block it."

Without hesitation, his voice carried a hint of determination.

"Yes, analyzing immunity magic, initiating avoidance of specific signals... Definition successful! Initiating shielding."

With a crisp click, it sounded like chains being locked.

His gaze fell on the unfortunate Ramiris, and a smile curled at the corner of his mouth.

After a moment

Ramiris shivered instantly, and her eyes cleared a little more.

"Mmm~"

Then her body started shaking even more violently, and she began to hug her small body.

"What's going on? Why is it so cold!"

He rubbed his little hands together, sobering up considerably. His gaze shifted and landed on Gransta, looking him up and down. Suddenly, a look of surprise appeared on his face, and he uttered a sound.

"You...you are Gransta, I..."

Ramiris's surprised face met Gransta's surprised gaze.

Ramiris was about to say something when Gransta's expression suddenly changed, and he snapped his fingers in the air.

Click click~

Ice covered her entire body, and Ramiris's small eyes rolled in disbelief.
